School Testimonials

"I have been very fortunate to come to Sapporo to study and learn Japanese. The best and fastest way to learn another language is to be immersed within the culture of that language. The people of Sapporo are very open and friendly and so daily life is quite enjoyable. Within the school, it is nice to make friends who all share in the common goal of communicating in Japanese. The school itself has always treated me very well, they provide the grammar, and vocabulary, it is up to you to make them work."

"A dream has come true. This is what I feel for being here in Sapporo. Since my childhood, I've been deeply interested in Japanese Culture. For this reason, now that I'm studying Japanese at university, I came here to improve it and this school has been the best choice. The teachers are so kind, and their ways of teaching are very helpful to let you learn Japanese in an easier way. Obviously, you have to study hard, but if you do it day by day there will be no problem. And of course Sapporo has so many places waiting to be explored...Unfortunately I'm here only for 3 months, but after graduating from my university, I hope I can come back to Sapporo to study soon. So all of you that in this crazy world want to learn Japanese, come here in Sapporo, because I'm sure there will be no regrets."
